Right, I have hired a hall out to do some shoots in and I want a quick way to batch edit the photos to black and white so I can show the clients both colour and black and white examples straight after the shoot. Will be using bridge and photoshop to do the batch editing but not sure on how to do the b+w conversion. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks
 
Just write yourself a photoshop action that coverts the files to b&w (Google it, there are loads of tutorials) and then create a droplet on your desktop.

Drag and drop the files onto the droplet, set a destination folder and job done.

(Or you could output the files both in Colour and then b+w which may be a bit slower.)

Right thats a idea actually, I shoot in raw and would need jpeg files of both b+w and colour of the same photo, both saved in the same location so my viewing/ordering software. So I understand how to batch edit using bridge to get all my photos b+w but can I also save them in colour in the same batch?

Thanks
